PATENTS

   

STEEL RADIAL

Innovative belt structure, with a single ply of steel bandinas wrapped at 0° around a radial carcass. Patented technology by Metzeler for both front and rear high performance tires. Steel features a higher stiffness than textile and this allows reducing the weight of the tire. Steel radial belt reduces the dynamic deformation of the tire under centrifugal forces giving the tire an excellent high-speed stability. Thanks to the more uniform heat distribution, mileage is increased and wear characteristics are more uniform.

MAW

"Metzeler Advanced Winding" patented winding system for optimum spacing between the
bandinas of the 0° steel belt. Depending on the cross section position, the steel cords are winded
with differentiated spacing. On both front & rear tire they're wider in the crown area for more
elasticity and self damping, closer in the areas involved in mid leans for improved stiffness during
fast cornering. On the shoulder area, but for the rear only, they're again wider for safe feedback
and control at grip limit.

MULTIPLE RADIUS CONTOUR

Engineering technology for contour design dedicated to high performance riding. The contour curvature is differentiated between crown and shoulder area, in order to provide most intuitive and effective handling and grip characteristics. The crown and shoulder areas feature a sharper radius for faster and more precise handling (crown) and safer stability limit feedback (shoulder). A wider radius characterizes the side area, ensuring a larger contact patch for cornering stability.

MBS

"Metzeler Belt System" is the patented technology by Metzeler for diagonal belt on conventional tires. This modular-like construction technology really allows tuning each single size to the specific needs of the bikes for superior stability. This means that weight and performance of the tire are specifically developed for classic powerful bikes, enhancing their dynamic performance.

MBS RADIAL

This symbol identifies a tire with radial carcass and diagonal belt, realized with the MBS technology using Nylon. The radial carcass allows building a low section tire for enhanced cornering stability and reduced weight, while the diagonal belt limits the tire deformations for high speed performance.
